EURUSD: Retail trader data shows 36.3% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders short to long at 1.76 to 1. The number of traders net-long is 7.8% higher than yesterday and 2.8% lower from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 7.1% higher than yesterday and 20.7% higher from last week.
We typically take a contrarian view to crowd sentiment, and the fact traders are net-short suggests EURUSD prices may continue to rise. Positioning is less net-short than yesterday but more net-short from last week. The combination of current sentiment and recent changes gives us a further mixed EURUSD trading bias.
